Moonlight Peaks Romance & Marriage Walkthrough

The Official Moonlight Peaks Wiki now identifies 23 dateable characters. This page follows that named launch roster and no longer carries forward the unsupported “disputed 24th” character found in older compilations.

This page covers the mechanics supported by TechRaptor, Bonus Action, and long-form gameplay. It removes the former page's unsupported birthday multiplier, moon-phase bonuses, jealousy roster, fixed NPC schedules, and spouse-specific perk table.

💡 Interactive Tool Companion: Search four published reactions for 23 candidates and five friends, or match your inventory with our 2-Way Gift & Romance Finder.

The Relationship Screen

Eligible dateable characters use an extended heart display in the relationship menu. Characters with only four heart icons are friendship-only according to TechRaptor.

The same menu helps with daily tracking:

• talk to the character;
• give one gift;
• hug or kiss when available;
• review recent gift reactions;
• play Nokturna when the character supports it.

Liked gifts are marked with a star and loved gifts with a heart in the previously-gifted history. Early playthrough footage shows the game retaining the last eight gifts, which is more dependable than assuming one flower is universal.

Heart-by-Heart Progression

Milestone	Supported unlock
From the start	Talk and give a daily gift
2 hearts	Hug
4 hearts	Ask the character out; dating hearts and kissing become available
During dating	Invite the partner on dates or receive an invitation
8 total hearts	TechRaptor reports proposal access after completing a date

Dates begin at the start of the next in-game night. Documented activities include flower arranging, pottery, and marshmallow roasting. These are interactive activities and can be failed; Josh's 60-hour review shows a failed date costing relationship progress.

All 23 Named Candidates

Group	Candidates
Vampires	Mina, Evan, Elvira, Orlock, Samael
Witches	Noel, Luna, Fiona, Sabrina
Werewolves	Saga, Ridge, Ludo
Seers	Dragan, Aras, Alina
Humans	Persephone, Jada, Winston
Mermaids	Tae, Rei, Kim
Other	Death, Llemi

Some candidates appear only after story progression, so an early relationship menu is not the final roster.

Elvira's one-heart event is a five-question bar quiz; the Pub Quiz answer sheet covers every choice and the Orlock damage question. Her later relationship route includes a five-stop clue quest across Town and Misty Shores. Use the Elvira Treasure Hunt guide for the Broken Lamp, graveyard, Webb of Wonders, Cave of Echoes bell, and Khazan Temple locations.

Can You Date Multiple Characters?

Yes. TechRaptor and Bonus Action both describe multi-dating, and Josh's review shows four or five active relationships in one save.

Multi-dating does not establish a universal “jealous character” list. The current sources support contextual reactions and invitations, not the former page's fixed rivalry matrix.

Josh also reported that repeatedly refusing a partner's invitations could cause a breakup and several days without conversation. Treat that as release-build behavior rather than a guaranteed counter with a known threshold.

Proposal and Marriage

TechRaptor and in-game saves report the following wedding sequence:

1. Reach Eight Hearts: 4 friendship hearts and 4 dating hearts.
2. Eighth-Heart Cutscene: Complete the character's unique 8-heart event.
3. Propose: Choose the proposal option at the conclusion of the next successful date.
4. Schedule the Wedding: Set a date at least two days in advance.
5. Ceremony: Attend the wedding at the town cathedral to receive the wedding achievement and official spouse status.

Does Your Partner Move In After Marriage?

The Short Answer: Your spouse has sleepovers at your farmhouse and sleeps in your master coffin/bed, but they do not abandon their town routine or stay inside 24/7.

• During daytime and evening hours, your spouse continues their normal town schedule, attending their workplace (such as Mina at Coffee & Coffins or Ridge at Howling Hammer).
• Spouses greet you with affectionate morning and evening dialogue, and will spend select nights resting beside you in your farmhouse.

Breaking Up or Divorcing in Moonlight Peaks

If you decide to end your marriage or partnership:

1. Speak to Llemi: Visit Llemi at the Town Hall or church. Llemi is the valley's officiant who oversees both unions and separations.
2. Divorce Takes Effect Next Night: The separation is finalized at sundown of the following day.
3. Heart Reset: Your former spouse drops from 8 hearts down to 4 friendship hearts and reverts to friend status.
4. Dialogue & Reactions: Your ex-partner will initially display somber or cold dialogue and will temporarily reject gifts for 2–4 in-game days.
5. No Town-Wide Penalty: Other town residents do not hold grudges against you, and shopkeeper exes continue to offer full merchant services.
6. Retained Rewards: Any wedding outfits, cosmetic furniture, or recipe rewards unlocked through dating and marriage remain permanently in your inventory and crafting ledger.

Romancing Death & Death's Gift Guide

One of the most popular and mysterious romance candidates is Death:

• Where to Find Death: Sits on a wooden tree stump in the central clearing of the Howling Marshes or wanders near the Town Graveyard.
• Preferred Date Activity: Marshmallow Roasting by the campfire.
• Marriage Prerequisite: Death requires completing at least 50% of the Museum collection board and triggering an evening cutscene in Town before accepting a marriage proposal.
• Top Loved Gifts for Death: Consult our 2-Way Gift & Romance Finder to filter all verified dark relics, rare mushrooms, and sweet treats Death accepts.

A Safe Romance Routine

1. Speak to the characters already on your route instead of crossing the map for everyone nightly.
2. Give an inexpensive item and inspect its recorded reaction.
3. Use the Gift Guide for evidence-labeled leads, not universal-gift claims.
4. At two hearts, add the daily hug when convenient.
5. At four hearts, ask the character out and leave the next night available for the date.
6. Do not schedule multiple dates for the same next night; post-launch coverage warns that only the last invitation may determine who arrives.
7. Continue story quests to reveal late candidates.

Character-Specific Marriage Conditions

• Death: Requires unlocking the Museum and reaching substantial donation progress (50%+), followed by a town cutscene.
• Ridge: Requires the Town bench repair job during autumn before Ridge's birthday.
• Llemi & Luna: No special prerequisite beyond standard heart thresholds and dating progression.

Story events can temporarily gate heart progression. Marriage caps all other dateable characters at 4 hearts. Check your in-game relationship state before initiating a proposal.
